Around the world, researchers are working extremely hard to develop new treatments and interventions for COVID-19 with new clinical trials opening nearly every day. This directory provides you with information, including enrollment detail, about these trials. In some cases, researchers are able to offer expanded access (sometimes called compassionate use) to an investigational drug when a patient cannot participate in a clinical trial.
The information provided here is drawn from ClinicalTrials.gov. If you do not find a satisfactory expanded access program here, please search in our COVID Company Directory. Some companies consider expanded access requests for single patients, even if they do not show an active expanded access listing in this database. Please contact the company directly to explore the possibility of expanded access.
Emergency INDs
To learn how to apply for expanded access, please visit our Guides designed to walk healthcare providers, patients and/or caregivers through the process of applying for expanded access. Please note that given the situation with COVID-19 and the need to move as fast as possible, many physicians are requesting expanded access for emergency use. In these cases, FDA will authorize treatment by telephone and treatment can start immediately. For more details, consult FDA guidance. Emergency IND is the common route that patients are receiving convalescent plasma.

A Phase III Clinical Trial to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of ZF2001 for Prevention of COVID-19
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled international multicenter clinical trial design will be adopted. A total of 29,000 subjects aged 18 years and above are planned to be recruited, including 750 subjects aged 18-59 years and 250 subjects aged 60 years and above in China; 21,000 subjects aged 18-59 years and 7,000 subjects aged 60 years and above will be recruited outside China. Safety and immunogenicity will be evaluated among the Chinese subjects, and efficacy, immunogenicity and safety will be evaluated among the subjects outside China. Among them, 750 subjects aged 18-59 and 250 subjects aged 60 and above from outside China and all subjects from China will be selected as the immunogenicity subgroup for immunogenicity bridging study. The IgG levels of SARS-COV-2 neutralizing antibody and RBD protein binding antibody will be detected by blood sampling before vaccination, 14 days and 6 months after full course of vaccination to evaluate the immunogenicity and immune persistence.

Initially, it was suspected that Covid-19 would primarily affect the airways, but several studies have now shown that it is a disease with multisystem manifestations. Covid-19 has the potential to affect physical, cognitive, and psychological functions in multiple ways. It has been clear that a significant proportion of patients with Covid-19 develop long-term symptoms. The term post-acute Covid-19 syndrome (PACS) is now used to describe the wide range of prolonged symptoms following the infection. Patients who have been in hospital for Covid-19 for a long time may need specialized rehabilitation, however, also non-hospitalized patients with mild symptoms may need specific rehabilitation to be able to meet the complex symptoms and problems that may arise. Previous studies on the recovery and rehabilitation after other coronavirus shows the importance to develop tailored interventions so that these patients receive appropriate rehabilitation The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of inspiratory muscle training on adult patients with PACS and decreased respiratory muscle strength. A randomized controlled trial will be used. A total of 90 adult patients with PACS and 80 % or less of predicted value in inspiratory muscle strength (maximal inspiratory pressure) will be eligible for enrollment. Patients will be randomized either to an intervention group or a control group. The intervention will consist of inspiratory muscle training performed twice daily for 8 weeks. This will be combined with an 8-week physical exercise training program. The control group will perform the same physical exercise training according to standard care. All measurements will be performed at baseline and after 8 weeks. Primary outcome is maximal inspiratory pressure. Secondary outcomes are: Maximal expiratory pressure, pulmonary function, physical capacity, physical activity, respiratory status and symptoms, health-related quality of life, work ability, fatigue, self-reported outcome measure of physical function and voice function. Covid-19 has the potential to affect physical, cognitive, and psychological functions in multiple ways and lead to a negative impact on quality of life in the long-term perspective. Therefore, development of a rehabilitation program with specific tailored interventions will be necessary to improve physical and psychological function, as well as health-related quality of life and work ability.

This study is a 12-month, four-arm parallel-group randomized control trial of Pfizer-BioNTech versus MODERNA COVID-19 (Corona Virus disease 2019)vaccine boosters in chronic kidney disease and dialysis patients with poor humoral response following COVID-19 vaccination, in collaboration with 5 dialysis centers in Ontario and British Columbia, Canada . Patients will be randomized to MODERNA or Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, they may have received either MODERNA or Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for their initial two doses of vaccine, and will be stratified by their initial vaccine type (MODERNA or Pfizer-BioNTech ) prior to randomization, which will result in four study groups.

This study investigates the changes in practice by pulmonary procedural programs across the United States as they faced the coronavirus pandemic. Information gathered from this study may help guide pulmonary programs on a wider scale and improve their practice. The study may also help researchers understand where they should focus research efforts to better respond to a pandemic in the future.

Long-term neurocognitive and psychiatric consequences of COVID-19 remain mostly unknown to date. It has been reported that coronaviruses cause direct central nervous system infection (Needham et al. 2020). Besides that, new or worsening cognitive impairment commonly occurs and persists in survivors of intensive care unit (ICU) stay (Hosey & Needham. 2020). The purpose of our study is to search and describe the cognitive and psychiatric long-term consequences of COVID-19 on patients who have been discharged from critical care units. This is an ambidirectional cohort study, that attempts to follow adults discharged from critical Care Units Adults due to COVID-19 up to 12 months after discharge, to evaluate the presence of cognitive impairment, linguistic and phonation function, depression, fatigue, functional gastroenterological symptoms, anxiety, or post traumatic disorder, and performance in activities of daily living and physical response to exercise as well.

Viruses are a major health problem for the general public and at risk populations. Normally, detection of antibody titers is the gold standard for determining the effectiveness of the immune system following natural or vaccine caused immunization. However, determining the effectiveness of other parts of the immune system are less common due to the difficulties with testing. Furthermore, there is a critical need to address other therapies in case vaccination is not successful in immuncompromised populations. Exercise has been shown to increase the strength of the immune system against many types of viruses and therefore could be simple way to improve immunity against the COVID-19 virus. The aim of this research is to determine the effects of exercise on anti-viral immunity against many types of common viruses before and after vaccination. We hypothesize that exercise will enhance the anti-viral immunity before and after vaccination. Up to 30 healthy volunteers (age 18-44 years) will be recruited to participate in this study. For completion of Aim 1, three visits are needed totaling around 7 hours of the patient's time and for Aim 2, three visits are needed totaling around 4.5 hours of the patient's time. The initial visit will be for pre-screening and if deemed healthy enough to participate, an exercise test to determine the VO2 max of the participant will be conducted. The following visits will require a trained phlebotomist to insert an in-dwelling catheter and participants will undergo a 20-minute incremental exercise trial. Approximately 50mL of blood will be collected at four different timepoints: at rest, 60% VO2 max, 80% VO2 max, and 1-hr post-exercise. All four collected blood samples will be used to expand viral specific T-cells and compare IFN-γ rele
